    This is a nice addition, but has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH
    DOCUMENT OBJECTS. It doesn't belong here. If anything, you should
    put together a single, small spec that adds this functionality to
    Get-Jobs separately. A pain, but this single attribute is useful
    on its own.

    Also, you probably need to have a way to let the client know that
    this attribute is supported, e.g.
    "start-after-job-id-supported (boolean)"...
